"Dying, He destroyed our death; Rising He restored our life!"

Catholic Charismatic Renewal to Host Mass

 and 2008 DSC Officers Installation

Holy Rosary Church

The Catholic Charismatic Renewal of the Diocese of Memphis would like to invite everyone to celebrate the depth of God's Love for us in the Sacrifice of His only Son, re-presented for us in the Holy Mass.  Mass will begin with Praise and Worship at 6:30 PM on Friday Night, September 12th at Holy Rosary Catholic Church, 4851 Park Avenue, Memphis, TN.  The celebrant will be Reverend Jim Martel, pastor.  There will be a reception after Mass.  

 In this year dedicated to St. Paul , we are asked to rekindle a love for the Eucharist and the Church.  One of the classic Pauline images is that of the Body of Christ as a communion of individuals with specific charisms and talents which build up of the Body. Paul shows that the Eucharist is the source of unity, harmony and communion in the Body.  Our reverent reception of the Eucharist is the great spark of missionary activity that leads us, like Saint Paul , to the ends of the earth to bring the Good News and heal the hurting and wounded.

Jesus continues to heal us today as He did 2000 years ago. At the Healing Mass, we bring our needs and infirmities to the Lord through the Eucharist. We believe that Jesus is present in the Eucharist and we ask for His healing to come upon us as we say before Communion, "Lord, I am not worthy to receive you but only say the word and I shall be healed."

When we think about it, every Eucharist is a healing celebration.  In it we receive the Lord Jesus. We are transformed by Him, and we let Him meet us in our needs.  In every Mass, we celebrate God's love for us.  With the priest we offer ourselves in sacrifice, giving thanks to the Father, through Jesus, our great High Priest, in the power of the Holy Spirit.  It is He who makes us a community who worships God in Spirit and Truth.  

We invite everyone to "come and experience God's Healing Love" on September 12th.  For further information, please contact Carlene Inzer at 901-327-3627 or Joe Solaas at 901-366-9672.
